Climate TRACE reports emissions for its own administrative and urban areas, not for arbitrary boundaries. Your area of interest was matched to Heidelberg District, Baden-Württemberg State, DEU (confidence: likely).
Matched to Heidelberg District, Baden-Württemberg State, DEU, whose name matches this area of interest.
Other areas overlapping your selection: Bergstraße District, Hessen State, DEU, Rhein-Neckar-Kreis District, Baden-Württemberg State, DEU.
Reports greenhouse gases emitted by electricity and heat generation within an area, and locates the
individual power stations responsible, using the Climate TRACE inventory.
Power is one of the sectors Climate TRACE models at the level of individual facilities, so the plants on
the map are real located assets rather than downscaled area averages. Emissions are attributed to where
the electricity is generated, not where it is used — an area that exports power carries those emissions,
and one that imports it does not.

In 2024, Germany emitted 9.51 t/person of CO₂e (100-year GWP) per person, ranking 16 among the countries Climate TRACE reports.
This is a national figure. Climate TRACE does not publish population data for smaller areas, so it cannot be recalculated for your area of interest.
Climate TRACE grades its confidence in each input behind a source — the activity data, the emissions factor, and so on. The table shows the weakest band for each source, because an estimate is only as good as its least certain input.
| Source | Sector | Emissions | Lowest confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| SKA AZV HEIDELBERG | domestic-wastewater-treatment-and-discharge | 17.1 kt CO₂e (100-year GWP) | not assessed |

Reports the greenhouse gases emitted within an area, broken down by sector, using the Climate TRACE
inventory. Climate TRACE combines satellite observations, reported data and sector-specific models to
estimate emissions worldwide — including for places that publish no inventory of their own.
Figures are modelled estimates, not meter readings, and are attributed to where emissions are produced
rather than where the energy or goods are consumed. Sub-national data begins in 2021. Because many
sub-national figures are downscaled from national totals, they are most useful for comparing the shape of
an area's emissions (which sectors dominate) rather than for auditing an exact tonnage.
